For certain huh. How can you be so certain when you claimed to know so little about Obama?

On Edwards, his rhetoric has been populist lately. His record while in office paints a whole different picture. He has been apologizing for a whole slew of votes he casted during his one term senate career....Iraq, Nafta etc. People learn from mistakes. God knows we all make them, however judgment and courage of convictions matters. Edwards knew in his gut that Iraq wasn't a good idea, but his ambitions clouded his judgment. Obama stood up at the time and call it a dumb war...his judgment and courage has been prescient on that and many other issues. 

"i watched him and oprah on tv last week and it was an oprah show not obama ,sorry obama fans."...suntou

Oprah's support is just the icing on the cake, but observers of the primary will tell you that the community organizer (obama) from Illinois has his ground game in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina tight. He was surging in the polls before the "oprah palooza". So this is not Oprah's show...give the man his due. He is not going to win this primary and the general because of Oprah, but despite oprah. Not trying to take anything from Oprah...she is an asset to his campaign.

I don't like making certitude statements, but Obama has as good a chance of winning this primary as anyone at this stage.We are fired up and ready to go. Come January 3rd the naysayers will be welcome on the Barack mobile bound for the hills of New Hampshire.

Jabou, you know you are beautiful. I can never get upset at you.

I think you like both John Edwards and Obama, but that you like Obama more 
because his election will represent much needed change.

Would you consider that the election of John Edwards will also represent 
change?

The work therefore is in discerning between John Edwards and Obama, who is 
the more desirable change!!!

Now, like you about John Edwards, I like Obama a lot because I think he is 
brilliant, popular, and his election will give hope to a lot of Immigrant 
Americans.

John Edwards not only represents hope for more Americans than Obama, he has 
shown the value of the change that he may accrue us. I have not had the 
opportunity to witness a sampling of Obama's change except that he looks different 
from past presidents.

John Edwards' One America Foundation offers some hope.
John Edwards' rebuilding efforts in the Lower Ninth ward offer hope in what 
America can be.
John Edwards fought with Huge corporate outfits on the behalf of regular and 
common Americans, and John Edwards and Obama are both lawyers.
Senator John Edwards of North carolina will get dirty for you and with you.
North Carolina used to be the home of Senator Jesse Helms.
John Edwards enjoys enormous peer support and the most endorsements from 
Democratic governors of states than either Obama or Clinton.
John Edwards is more electable across the United states than any candidate 
currently seeking the presidency, Republican or Democrat. Check the stats.
Libby Edwards is beautiful and is not beholden to corporate America. Mrs. 
Obama is beautiful but may be beholden to corporate America. She sits on the 
board of Walmart.
John Edwards is handsome and is not given to religious distinctions nor does 
he believe religion ought to be mixed with governance. John Edwards believes 
in Religion as moral and ethical compass, not administrative compass.

Obama is good. John Edwards is more valuable to all America. Edwards-Obama 
may be formidable. What do you think my dear? Lemme know, Lemme know!! You know 
Ousman is an Obama-head!!! Don't you??

Your friend and colleague Haruna.

Haruna,

I both like and have a great deal of respect for John Edwards and his wife 
Elizabeth for many reasons, some of which are mentioned below. However, I am 
an Obama supporter myself. I also think Obama has a better chance of being 
elected because among other things, he is seen as the "change" candidate by 
a country that desperately needs change and Hillary ain't it. Infact, I 
think Hillary has turned into a "snake oil sales lady" and she is everything to 
everyone in her zeal to be president and I do not trust her at all and the 
rest of the country is beginning to see through her. I think that Edwards' best 
shot will be as a V.P for Obama. I think together they would make an awesome 
team.
Now, now, don't get too upset.
Jabou

Subject: I wish to share John Edwards with you:










We just concluded another conference call with David Medina, the national 
campaign director for John Edwards.

We are excited about the prospects for a John Edwards Presidency. We are 
pleased to have the support of Harry Belafonte and Danny Glover in South 
Carolina. Our gratitude to the United Steel workers Union, The Mine Workers 
Union, 
The Carpenters Union, and Friends of the Earth Action Network. I am proud 
of 
John Edwards' performance in the just concluded democratic candidate debate 

sponsored by the Des Moines Register. John Edwards is humble, intelligent, 
and 
stands up for the Common American even on unpopular issues. He has vision 
and 
character, attributes that are extremely valuable to American foreign 
policy 
and stature in the world.

We would like volunteers to assist in South Carolina, Iowa, Nevada, and New 

Hampshire. We also wish to ask for your financial support if your time will 
not allow volunteering. Please visit us at _http://www.johnedwards.com_ 
(http://www.johnedwards.com) and thank you for your support and company 
toward 
a 
One-America.

Haruna.
